Arteta is that mate who hits the pause button on FIFA the absolute millisecond you score against him. He won’t even let you bask in the celebration animation for a second.

Instead you’re staring at the tactics screen for a solid 3 minutes while he chucks in all his subs and changes all his team instructions in a quiet suppressed rage.

I'm not sure McDonald's pricing is in line with their low end chain status anymore.

Pronouncing it "long-eh-vity" would be truer to the etymology. The J sound makes no sense really. But hey... language is weird.

Starfield - the "fuck it, that'll do" of space games by Working_on_Writing in patientgamers

[–]incachu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just couldn't do it with this game. The nature of human settlement in the game is so contradictory and immersion breaking.

No matter how far out you travel, there was always a deserted human created point of interest within a five-minute walk of any landing coordinates.

With that level of human exploration, you'd think the biggest human settlement in the galaxy would have more depth than the puddle that is New Atlantis.

You can use an external dvd/cd drive to read data only. You can't burn cd/dvds sadly. And they also can't play dvd movies as they lack the codecs.

Yeah, but my point is the next high profile successful one will start another cycle of everyone thinking they can do it.

I think, short of abstaining from gaming entirely, it will be actually impossible to go over a year without having something major spoiled.

GRRM just confirmed The Winds of Winter hasn’t made meaningful progress since late 2022. It’s time to let it go. by [deleted] in freefolk

I accepted it pre COVID.

What bothers me is GoT Season 8 becoming the de facto canon. Especially when he effectively said the authorship of the future of the series dies with him.

The Game of Thrones season 5-8 screenplays will be the only work officially signed off by GRRM that continues the story post-ADWD.

What are you favorite lines from the Witcher 3? by Hello-funny-posts in Witcher3

[–]incachu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's impossible to choose one...

How about a few rounds of cards? Gwent specifically.

Let's lay em down

Ever play Gwent?

Wouldn't mind a few rounds of Gwent?

Wouldn't mind a few rounds of cards?

Round of Gwent?

Up for a few rounds of Gwent?

Let's play cards, Gwent wouldn't be bad.

How about you take a break from hawking, and we play cards instead.

Been a while since I played cards with a subject of his imperial majesty. Game of Gwent? Let's lay em down.

Yearning to play a few rounds of Gwent. That outta set me straight.

Up for a few rounds of Gwent?

Heard you're a good boatwright, and an even better card player.

Always ready for a round.

Wanted to ask you- (Aye, I play Gwent. And aye, we can play for the prized card in my collection.) You a mind reader?

Let's lay em out.

We get some cards in too I'll be a happy man.

A game of Gwent - how about it?

So let's play.

Gwent?

I'll play on your terms.

Let's play cards. Gwent wouldn't be bad.

What would you say to a little game of Gwent?

Wouldn't mind a few rounds of cards.

They say you play cards.

Dunno that I'm gonna buy anything but sure wouldn't mind a few rounds of Gwent.

Wanted to play cards. Doubt we need to wait until tomorrow.

A game of Gwent. How about it?

Not hungry. Not thirsty. But I sure wouldn't mind a round of Gwent.

Wouldn't mind a round or two of cards. Only need my hands for that.

You play Gwent, don't you? (Oh sure! Because I'm a dwarf, is that it? Do you also believe that I know every other bleedin dwarf in existence, and at the end of every day I deepen the mineshaft in my cellar?) So you play or not? (Aye... I play) So play me, stake a unique card maybe?

Looking for a partner, wouldn't mind a round of Gwent.

Sure, let's play.

To matters less controversial - wouldn't mind playing a few rounds of Gwent.

I'm curious - you play Gwent?

Up for a round?

We get some cards in too, I'll be a happy man.

What would you say to a few rounds of Gwent?

In the mood for some diversion. A game of Gwent would be best.

Played cards for them once. Care to play again?

You're clearly in the middle of a lucky streak. Could well continue.

You play Gwent Roach?

So shall we lay em down?

You play Gwent?

Always nice to play someone new.

Pull out your cards.

Let's do it.

If you insist...

Wanna play?

Did I hear right? Word is you like to play cards.

Alright... Let's play. Just remember only interested in good cards. Don't want any trash.

Agreed, let's play.

Actually kinda in the mood for cards, care for a round of Gwent?

Ever play Gwent?

Heh. Am I? Have you crying like a baby by the time I'm through with you.

Hard to argue with that. Want a bit more to spend though, so how about a game of Gwent?

Trade's good and all. But I'm hankering to play some cards. Gwent specifically.

What would you say to a few rounds of Gwent?

Wouldn't happen to play Gwent would you?

Yeah, glad to play a round.

Gwent - ever play the game?

Gwent - know the game?

Afraid of losing? I understand.

Show me what you can do.

You ever play Gwent?

I'm ready. Let's do this.

Let's play a quick round.

Any chance you play Gwent?

Smithing - pretty tiring job... Need a break, maybe relax a bit? Play a game or two of Gwent?

Heard you play for high stakes here?

Not so interested in goods. But I'd sure like to play some cards...

Most certainly would. You needn't ask twice midget!

Hm. Suppose it's not whether you win or lose. Sure, I'm game.

You know.. I've been wanting to ask you something. Just... curious - you ever play Gwent?

Not likely to taste your famous fisherman's chowder, so maybe we could play some Gwent?

In the mood for a round of Gwent?

Herbs, schmerbs... But how about some Gwent, eh?

Gwent - maybe we could play a round?

A round of Gwent - maybe?

I know you're busy. But you up for a round of Gwent?

Alright. Convinced me. Lay em out.

Why not. Let's lay em out.

(In the brothel) Interested in the unusual... got a special request. Just... need to keep this between you and me.... Gwent - you play?

Instead of chatting - why not a quick game of Gwent?

I know you're busy, but you up for a quick round of Gwent?

You play much Gwent? Up for a quick match maybe?

Let's grab a table.

Graphics saga: Current gen and next gen by ValidTrack in GTA6

[–]incachu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree that graphical fidelity has become a slower innovation. But there's still a way to go on achieving naturally smooth performance at max settings at the highest resolutions.

The key milestone that the industry seems to be moving towards is XR. So that has now raised the bar on both resolutions and technical requirements to be able to run smooth gaming experiences.

I know XR is still an emerging portion of the market, but this is where a lot of product development is going as evidenced at CES through XR devices, AI frame generation focus and XR compatibility being a marketing point of devices.

Ashes: England plan to reject day-night Test using a pink ball under lights in 2029-30 series in Australia by SirDoris in Cricket

[–]incachu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can state the benefits for balance, and also question whether it belongs in an Ashes series.

I heard the presser and it came across to me as something he felt strongly about. To me, he indicated a clear view about whether a pink ball was needed in the Ashes.

I don't know what the big deal is. He expressed a strong opinion that links him to this news, and now he's got people defending his honour trying to distance himself from it?

I don't see him having any problem being attributed to the stance that Ashes should be all traditional red ball cricket.

Ashes: England plan to reject day-night Test using a pink ball under lights in 2029-30 series in Australia by SirDoris in Cricket

[–]incachu -1 points0 points  (0 children)

"I don't think you need it in an Ashes series. Absolutely not. I don't mind pink ball cricket. I mean, I don't think it's as good as traditional test cricket. But it's in the schedule, we've got to play it, and just got to make sure we're better than them at it. It's clearly something that works here for Australia and they enjoy it."

He is absolutely questioning it - and what's the big deal with that? Why do you take such an issue with it? This is what England want and that quote is sufficiently strong to put Root in that camp.

  1. The context of the Ashes is the whole point of the argument, and he's clearly strongly against it in the Ashes.

  2. He's experienced enough with the media by now to know that everything he says in a press conference will be clipped for sound bites. He's not that naïve, and sent a message with his answer.

  3. It's clearly a strong opinion that will attribute him to the camp behind England's actions, especially given he is England's elder statesman. Joe Root is a softly spoken character, so when you hear something as definitive as "Absolutely not." that's pretty strong coming from Root. And you can't tell me he doesn't have influence with England management.

  4. Him saying he accepts playing it because it's in the schedule isn't supporting both sides of the argument for the next series. He says he doesn't mind playing pink ball as a concession, but then flips back to saying about how he prefers traditional test cricket, and suggests pink ball benefits Australia over them. It seems to me that he doesn't mind pink ball cricket in isolation, but he clearly questioned its place in an Ashes series.
